If-Then-Else statements

Barb,
I agree with Ken Sheridan. The code we suggested is OK, so the
PaymentID may be something other than Null.
Is it Null ?
Is it "" ?
Is it 0 (zero)?

A trick I use in these situations is to set up the Format for the
PaymentID control...
#.00 ; -#.00 ; .00 ; \Null

If either a Positive or negative value = display normally (123.45
or -123.45)
If zero = display as .00
If Null = Display as "Null"

Thank you John, for your reply. I'm using MS Access 2007. I believe the
PaymentID is NULL, but I tried your function just in case, that still
didn't
work. I also tried including all the labels, that didn't work either.
I'm
lost at what to do next.

You might need to hide the label also.

What version of Access are you using?
Are you sure the value of PaymentID is NULL?
Is it possible that it is a zero-length string?

You could use something like the following to handle Nulls, zero-length
strings, and strings that consist of multiple spaces.

Me.PaymentID.Visible = Len(Trim(Me.PaymentID & ""))0
Me.PaymentAmount.Visible = Len(Trim(Me.PaymentID & ""))0
Me.PaymentDate.Visible = Len(Trim(Me.PaymentID & ""))0

Thank you and the others for helping me try and figure this out.
Obviously I 'm just learning the code, but I've tried all suggestions to
no
